The Story of Saul, Part 1

There are dark forces high up in Wild Mountain that are looking for “The One”. Paw Paw Chuck tells Theo, C.J.'s dad, more about Shadow Valley and how they will need to prepare the club for what’s coming.

Rumors are flying about Wildwood until the Wildwood Gazette is formed by Miss Harbor. Everyone in her classroom becomes a reporter searching for the truth wherever it may be found!

Ned and Tiffany find themselves fighting each other for power so they won't need to depend on anyone, ever. In the cylinder story, Jesus pursues Peter specifically to offer him forgiveness and grace. Peter learns that he needs to receive that forgiveness so their relationship can be healed. Depending on Jesus is the smartest thing we can do.

Mr. Rockler’s plan to dig through the mountain is about to end in ruin. Staci’s Mom is going to have that baby. But neither event is as it seems. 

Alma teaches Staci, Marsha and Gooz how to put their faith into action with a “Hug from God Supper” program. But will the town rally behind the girls’ efforts? Meanwhile the boys help Alex realize his factory’s amazing potential.

A trip to a huge abandoned factory turns into an adventure in discovery for C.J. and Ned. There are more machines than they can count! But instead of sharing in their enthusiasm, the new owner wishes they had never come. Meanwhile the girls learn that some Christians settle for less than God’s best.

King Saul’s victories on the battlefield lead his nation to prosperity, but when he refuses to obey Samuel’s instruction, Saul pays a great price. God directs Samuel to select for Israel a new king; a man after God’s own heart.

“A storm of destruction is coming—and King Saul doesn’t see it.” When Saul hears the words of his advisors more loudly than the direction of the Lord, his distraction threatens to destroy an entire nation.

A reluctant king rises to the challenge of leading a nation. King Saul’s humility and obedience brings his people back to worshipping God. But as the Philistine armies prepare to attack, the king’s faith is put to the ultimate test.

“We want a king like the other nations!” The nation of Israel turns its back on God’s leadership and calls for a king to be chosen from among them. But following God’s direction, the Prophet Samuel makes an unlikely choice—a man whose last job was rounding up wild donkeys!
